The United States is conducting nuclear exercises in Russia.

Russia’s Defense Ministry said in a statement that 10 US bombers involved in the US military exercise Global Thunder had come within 20 kilometers of the Russian border to conduct a nuclear attack on Russia from the east and west.

Russia Defense Minister Sergei Shoigu said Moscow had noticed a significant increase in the activity of US strategic bombers, which he said had flown about 30 flights to Russia this month. 2.5 times more than that.

The Pentagon has said in a statement that the “exercises” were carried out in accordance with international law and protocol.

It should be noted that the Ukraine dispute between the United States and Russia continues to escalate.
